(b)
All buildings fronting on West Atlantic Avenue, N.W. 5th Avenue, or
SW 5'h Avenue must contain nonresidential uses on the ground floor
facing the street. Dwelling units are permitted within the same

each use allowed. In the event that residential and non-residential
uses are located in the same structure, residential uses and non-
residential uses must be physically separated and have separate

(h)
Free standing or mixed-use residential development up to twelve
(12) units per acre is a permitted use~ Density may exceed twelve
(12) units per acre, up to a maximum of thirty (30) units per acre, as
a conditional use. Density may exceed 12 units per acre only. after
the approving body make..s a finding that the project has substantially
complied with the performance standards listed below, the West
Atlantic Avenue Redevelopment Plan, required findings of Section
2.4.5(E), and applicable standards of the Comprehensive Plan and
Land Development Regulations. Notwithstanding these provisions,
the approving body may deny an application for increased density
where it is determined that the proposed project is not compatible in
terms of building mass and intensity of use with surrounding
development. It is acknowledged that it may not be possible for
projects which involve the modification of existing structures to
comply with many of the standards. For those types of projects, the
ultimate density should be based upon compliance with those
standards which can be reasonably attained, as well as the project's
ability to further the goal of revitalizing the Redevelopment Area.
The following performance standards shall apply to all applications
for new development and modification of existing developments
which would result in a density greater than twelve (12) dwelling units
per acre:
(1)
The development offers variation in design to add interest to the
elevations and relief from the building mass. For example, the
building setbacks or planes of the facade are offset and varied.
In structures having more than two stodes, stepping back of the
upper stories (third floor and above) is encouraged to decrease
the perception of bulk. Building elevations incorporate several
Of.the following elements: diversity in window and door shapes
and locations; features such as balconies, arches, porches; and
design elements such as shutters, window mullions, quoins,
decorative tiles, or similar distinguishing features.
(2)
If the building includes a parking garage as an associated
structure or within the principal building, the garage elevation
provides unified design elements with the. main building through
the use of similar building materials and color, vertical and
horizontal elements, and architectural style. The garage is
designed in a manner that obscures parked vehicles except in
places where unavoidable, such as entrances and exits.
Development of a portion of the ground floor perimeter adjacent
to street rights of way is devoted to window displays or floor
area for active uses such as retail stores, personal and
business service establishments, entertainment, offices, etc., is
encouraged.
(3) A number of different unit types, sizes and floor plans are
available within the development. Two and three bedroom units
are encouraged, as are a combination of multi-level units and
flats. In projects consisting of more than twelve (12) dwelling
units, the prop0rt!on of efficiency or studio type units may not
exceed 25% of the total units. There is no maximum
(4)
percentage established for projects having twelve (12) or fewer
units, however, a mix of unit types and sizes is encouraged.
The interiors of the dwelling units provide unique features and
conveniences that distinguish them from standard multi-family
projects and create an attractive living environment. Examples
of some of the features that could be incorporated to meet this
standard are: ceiling heights of 9 feet or greater; extensive use
of natural lighting; panel doors throughout the interior; use of
decorative molding for baseboard, door and window casings;
wood or ceramic tile flooring in all or a portion of the units; built
in cabinetry and/or shelving; arched entryways or passageways;
indMdual laundry facilities; special security features; or a
combination of similar features and elements that meet the
(5)
(6)
intent of this standard.
The development provides common areas and/or amenities for
residents such as swimming .. pools, exercise rooms, storage
rooms or lockers, covered parking, gardens, courtyards, or
similar areas and/or amenities.
The development promotes pedestrian movements by providing
convenient access from the residential units to the public
sidewalk system. Pedestrian areas adjacent to the building are
enhanced by providing additional sidewalk area at the same
level as the abutting public sidewalk. Accessways to parking
areas are designed in a manner that minimizes conflicts
between vehicles and pedestrians. The public street or streets
immediately adjacent to the development are enhanced in a
manner that is consistent with the streetscape on West Atlantic
(7)
(8)
Avenue.
The development provides opportunities to share parking,
accessways, driveways, etc., with .adjoining properties, or
provides additional parking spaces that may. be used by the
public.
Nonresidential ground floor space .has ceilings not less than ten
(10) feet in height. For buildings fronting on West Atlantic
Avenue, NW 5~ Avenue, or SW 5~ Avenue, at least f/fly percent
(50%) of the surface area of the front street wall(s) at the
ground floor of each such building is devoted to display
windows and to entrances to commercial uses from outside the
building.

MARCH 16, 2000
This xs second reading and the second pubhc hearing for Ordinance No. 6-00 which amends LDR
Sectton 4.4.9, "General Commercml (GC) Dmtrict", to allow densmes of up to twelve (12) units per
acre as a permitted use and up to thirty (30) umts per acre as a conchtional use in the West Aflanttc
Avenue Overlay District, subject to performance standards.
Pursuant to Amendment 99-1, the following policy was added to the Comprehensive Plan:
Future Land Use Element Poh'cy
The Ci(y shall amend the General Commerdal (GC) ~oning &strict to accommodate increased
multipk family dendties over !2 units per acre, but not to exceed a maximum of 30 units per acre as
a conditional use in the [VestAtlantic Avenue Redevelopment Area Overlay.
The proposed LDR text amendments are necessary to implement this Comprehensive Plan policy.
The proposed amendments were reviewed and recommended for approval by the West Atlantic
Redevelopment Coalition (WARC) on February 16, 2000. The Community Redevelopment Agency
remewed and recommended approval of the proposed amendments on February 24, 2000.
The Planning and Zoning Board considered the text amendments at a public hearing held on

AGENDA ITEM:
FEBRUARY 28, 2000
IV.H. AMENDMENT TO THE LAND DEVELOPMENT
REGULATIONS (LDRs) PROVIDING FOR AN INCREASE IN
RESIDENTIAL DENSITY OF UP TO THIRTY (30) UNITS PER
ACRE IN THE WEST ATLANTIC OVERLAY DISTRICT
The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation to the City Commission
on amendments to the General Commercial (GC) Zoning District, LDR Section 4.4.9(B)
Principal Uses and Structures Permitted, Section 4.4.9(E) Review and Approval
Process, and Section 4.4.9(G)(1) West Atlantic Avenue Overlay District Supplemental
District Regulations.
Pursuant to LDR Section 1.1.6, amendments to the Land Development Regulations
may not be made until a recommendation is obtained from the Planning and Zoning
Board.
One of the items included in Comprehensive Plan Amendment 99-1 was to amend the
GC land use description to correct an inconsistency between the land use and zoning
descriptions regarding stand-alone residential uses, and to establish a maximum
allowable density. In the General Commercial (GC) zoning district, stand-alone multiple
family developments are allowed subject to the RM zone districts regulations, which
allow a density up to 12 units per acre. Thus, it is inferred that the maximum residential
density for mixed-use developments is also 12 units per acre.
During the processing of the amendment, the Community Redevelopment Agency
(CRA) requested that a greater density be permitted within the West Atlantic Avenue
Redevelopment Area, via the Conditional Use process and subject to the same
performance standards that apply in the Central Business District. The West Atlantic
Avenue Redevelopment Plan calls for two to four story mixed-use buildings with either
residential or office on the upper floors. The intent of the mixed-use scenario is to
provide residences to support the commercial and service uses in the redevelopment
area, and to encourage economic development. Due to the density limitations in the
current regulations, residential uses would be generally limited to one floor only.
On March 15, 1999, the Planning & Zoning Board considered the CRA's request to
allow the increased density in the West Atlantic Avenue area. Staff suggested that
given the Iow density residential developments north and south of the redevelopment
area, the density could be limited to a maximum of 30 units per acre, with density
Planning and Zoning Board Memorandum Staff Report
Residential Density - West Atlantic Overlay
Page 2
increases over 12 units per acre subject to a conditional use approval. The Board
agreed that the increase should be subject to a Conditional Use approval, but didn't feel
it was appropriate to establish a maximum. After some discussion, it was determined
that the ultimate density would be limited by such development standards as maximum
building height and coverage, setbacks, minimum dwelling unit sizes, and parking
requirements.
The amendment was transmitted to the State Department of Community Affairs (DCA)
with a density of up to 12 units per acre for all of the GC areas except the West Atlantic
Avenue overlay, where there would be no specified units per acre maximum. DCA
reviewed the amendment and requested that a maximum dwelling unit/acre be
specified for West Atlantic. In order to satisfy their request, staff proposed that the
language be amended to add a maximum density of 85 units per acre for the West
Atlantic Avenue Redevelopment Area, since this maximum is theoretically possible
under the GC zoning district development standards.
The revised amendment was reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Board on
September 27, 1999 and a positive recommendation was made to the City
Commission. At the City Commission hearing on October 19, 1999, several people
expressed their concern that the 85 unit per acre density was too high. The City
Commission modified the amendment by limiting the density to 30 units per acre.
This amendment proposes to allow residential density up to 30 units per acre in the
West Atlantic Avenue Redevelopment Overlay Area as a Conditional use and subject to
performance standards. The issue of maximum density within this area was discussed
and decided last year during the process of amending the Comprehensive Plan
(Amendment 99-1).
REQUIRED FINDINGS
LDR Section 2.4.5(M)(5), Amendment to the Land Development Regulations,
Findings: In addition to the provisions of Section 1.1.6(A), the City Commission
must make a finding that the text amendment is consistent with and furthers the
Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
A review of the objectives and policies of the adopted Comprehensive Plan was
conducted and the following applicable policy was noted:
Future Land Use Element Policy A-5.6
The City shall amend the General Commercial (GC) zoning district to
accommodate increased multiple family densities over 12 units per acre,
but not to exceed a maximum of 30 units per acre as a Conditional Use in
the West At/antic Avenue Redevelopment Area Over/ay.

The proposed text amendment is necessary to implement this Comprehensive Plan
Policy. Therefore, a positive finding can be made that the amendment is consistent
with and furthers the Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed amendment was reviewed by the West Atlantic Redevelopment Coalition
(WARC) on February 16, 2000. The Board recommended approval of the proposed
amendment.
The proposed amendment was reviewed by the Community Redevelopment Agency on
February 24, 2000. The Board recommended approval of the proposed amendment.
1. Recommend approval of the proposed amendment.
2. Recommend denial of the proposed amendment, in whole or in part.
3. Continue with direction.
Recommend that the City Commission adopt the attached amendment to the General
